What is it that makes sunflowers so popular among people? What inspired Van Gogh to paint 11 paintings of sunflowers amounting to 87 flowers all together? Rumor has it that scientific studies suggested that the bright round yellow flower gives the viewer a sense of well being and increases the feeling of happiness. It is rumored that the sight of sunflowers releases the endorphins in our bodies; the happy hormone. Whatever it is, I enjoy painting them and people enjoy viewing them.
